280k a week.
Lies.
Lies.
Very very very nice!
That’s what I would say has precisely happened,and the media will run with us paying similar or slightly more to paint the rags as being unlucky and us throwing money about,absolutely no way would he be getting that from us more like half of that would be more realistic..£280k is utter fucking bollocks. I bet that's what the Rags have offered him and he's turned it down to move here, no way on earth in our pay structure he'd get anywhere fucking near that.
With those figures being quoted by the press it’s a wonder why we didn’t go for de Ligt then ..£80m and £280k a week.
Should have took it on the chin and phoned Raiola up for De Ligt.
They've probably factored his possible win bonuses as if we won every match of the season, & Maguire got a hat trick in each game.280k hahahaha media bollocks at its best.
Very very very nice!
It's the Mirror no way will we be paying £280k per week utter shite. I would also doubt if it is £80m upfront, more like £70m with add ons.With those figures being quoted by the press it’s a wonder why we didn’t go for de Ligt then ..
We ll seeLol that's obviously made up bollocks.
That's what I was thinking. A load of bonuses take the wages up to the amount.I think you'll find his basic wage will be something along the lines of 180k a week and the other 100k, IF they are right about it being 280k that is, will be made up of bonuses and what not.
You can bet the next article will be something along the lines of city offer more wages than utd etc etc ....you know, to make utd look like the poor guys in all this.
I think 280k is almost certainly bullshit, but if they are correct that he signed a new deal in September people are seriously underestimating what his wages are actually going to be. If he was on 80k a week prior to that deal as was reported, he’ll easily be in the 100k+ bracket currently and as the world record fee centerback (or close to it) and an England international he should get something like 200k from us, a tier right below our top earners.Prior to bonuses, yeh.
The fact that the article says we're prepared to meet the 80 million valuation but United won't go that high should tell you everything you need to know. Speculative bullshit.280k hahahaha media bollocks at its best.
